[Official] 2021 Genesis GV70

[Fellows]

Look back at our current AVANTE CN7, really lousy infotainment system and lack of ambient lighting. How expensive can these item be? Lol, at least give customers the option to choose like Continental cars. Weird that Japanese and Korea cars sold here all pre-define the spec and options from AD, we cannot even choose optional package.

Watching so many review from Korean cars, also notice that well known Japanese car makers like Toyota and Honda are still very traditional, slow to adapt technology, no full digital instrument cluster, rotate style gear selection and many more etc

Come on Genesis, when will this be reach our shore?

 

 

 

You mean Komoco? They got burnt badly the last round... now it will take quite a bit to bring Genesis in considering our COE situation... with prices heading north, the average consumer will go for the prestige brands even if the Genesis is better in every way except the badge...

Nah I gave up on Komoco, they only interested to bring in cheaper cars nowadays, doing nothing to improve the brand image..

Isnt it obvious they are doing the "Toyota/Lexus" thingy?

Whether they call it Genesis or Revelations it is still a Hyundai. Just like the above. Registered as Toyota even though it has a Lexus badge.

Oh really? In Singapore Lexus is registered as Toyota?

Anyway I thought Toyota said that Lexus and Toyota will not spot the same chassis and parts anymore... how come still about same same... can get Toyota JDM which is rebadged as Lexus elsewhere in the world?

Probably not anytime soon, my advice is to look elsewhere if you are thinking of getting a car within the next 1 year

Got 3 years to wait.

Their current product offering is super strong. I think they are subsidising the high cost quality components to gain market share and brand awareness, so I felt this is the best time to buy.

Genesis Electrified GV70

The Electrified GV70 is built on the heritage of the GV70, inheriting its predecessor's spacious interior and adding outstanding performance and a host of new technologies designed exclusively for electric vehicles.

During the event at Auto Guangzhou 2021, Genesis showcased an Electrified GV70 with an Atacama Copper Matte exterior. On the exterior, the front fascia displays a careful consideration for aerodynamic efficiency and function. Genesis' signature Crest Grille has evolved into an aerodynamic crest that features an inverted G-Matrix pattern and incorporates a hidden EV charging port, creating a minimalist yet sophisticated look. The minimalist horizontal shape of the rear bumper completes the model's modern image. A simplified, tailpipe-free skid plate emphasizes the SUV's electric nature, while the iconic and progressive Two-Line Quad Lamps put the finishing touch on the electric model of GV70 with Genesis' signature Two Lines architecture.

The interior boasts a driver-focused design, offering an intuitive and dynamic driving experience. Inspired by the 'Beauty of White Space' interior design concept, the Electrified GV70 offers customers the opportunity to write their own story with an interior that reflects the sustainable ambitions of this electric vehicle, as well as Genesis' commitment to future sustainability. A variety of eco-friendly materials have been used to furnish the model, and each material features a high-quality finish, completing a design that embodies Genesis' vision for sustainable luxury from the inside out. Genesis will offer the model with a Glacier White interior.

The competitiveness of the Electrified GV70's interior has been enhanced by lowering the center tunnel to secure an amount of second row space that is equivalent to the GV70.

As an athletic and dynamic vehicle, the Electrified GV70 offers competitive and powerful performance to satisfy drivers. It will be available only as an AWD (All-Wheel Drive) model, with a maximum power output of 160kW and 350Nm of torque for the front and rear, delivering a total maximum output of 360kW (in Boost Mode) and 700Nm of torque. This powerful model can go from 0 to 100km/h in 4.5 seconds in Boost Mode.

In addition, the Electrified GV70 is the first Genesis model to feature the SUV-specific e-Terrain Mode, which enables a stable driving experience in various environments.

The new model delivers a competitive all-electric range (AER). Based on the CLTC standard, the estimated maximum range per charge is over 500km (Based on the Korean EV certification system, the estimated range per charge is 400km). The addition of 350kW rapid charging, meanwhile, enables the battery to charge from 10% to 80% in just 18 minutes.

Furthermore, Genesis' application of a 400V/800V multi-rapid charging system will allow drivers to utilize various forms of charging infrastructure. The multi-rapid charging system enables fast and stable charging by raising the voltage supplied by typical chargers from 400V to 800V. The technology is optimized for the vehicle's system thanks to the model's driving motors and inverters. Customers can use the 800V rapid charging system to utilize both 400V and 800V charging infrastructure without the need for an additional converter.

The electric version of the GV70 also includes a V2L (Vehicle to Load) feature that supports a 3.6kW charge, which is higher than the power supply in the average home, enabling customers to conveniently use electric appliances outside of the vehicle.

Moreover, the Disconnector Actuator System (DAS) can automatically connect or disconnect the motor and drive shaft, considering various driving conditions. Such conditions include vehicle speed and driving mode, enabling seamless switching between 2WD and AWD - reducing unnecessary power loss while increasing efficiency.

The new model's driving experience is further enhanced with a variety of cutting-edge technologies. The Smart Regenerative Braking System 2.0 regenerates energy through the braking system based on driving habits, real-time navigation, and road conditions. In driving mode, the i-Pedal (Intelligent Pedal) allows the driver to accelerate, decelerate and stop using just the accelerator pedal.

Genesis also equipped the vehicle with ANC-R (Active Noise Control-Road) to achieve a comfortable driving experience. The technology significantly reduces the level of noise by measuring and analyzing road noises utilizing four sensors and eight microphones and simultaneously creating sounds at opposite phases.

The Preview Electronic Control Suspension (Pre-view ECS) has been applied to support an optimal driving experience. This suspension system can be controlled based on information collected through the SUV's front camera and navigation system.
